USA Basketball Showcase

It was a hot desert night Las Vegas, but inside the Thomas and Mack Center at UNLV, the atmosphere couldn’t have had more chill. On Thursday, USA Basketball capped off its Vegas minicamp with an easygoing intra-squad scrimmage. Despite some big missing names (LeBron, KD, Melo, CP3 and other national team veterans didn’t suit up), spirits were high. So were the alley-oops: Blake Griffin, Andre Drummond and Victor Oladipo stole the show with a string of rim rattling dunks. (Photographs By Jed Jacobsohn/The Players’ Tribune.)
